Every time I make a pumpkin lantern, or roast meat with pumpkin, I also roast the pumpkin seeds. They are great source of goodness (heaps of zink) and they taste nice too. All these seeds need is just a simple quick wash and on any old pizza tray they get done to golden color pretty fast.

Roasted Pumpkin seeds also make an outstanding vinaigrette. Crush them in a food processor or mortar and pestle and combine them with vinegar, oil, honey, dijon mustard, shallots, and either mint or tarragon. I’d recommend using a lighter vinegar such as sherry, banyuls, or champagne as something like balsamic would be too overpowering. This would probably taste really good with Haggi’s Pumpkin and Fennel salad.

Karen,

I don’t know why this keeps happening with my entrecard. I had 103 people drop on my so far today and it worked fine for me. I wonder what is happening. Yeah I just happened to mention it to her and she was up for writing the post. Very cool.

Very cool about Lisa! My husband loves that show. Hey, your entrecard doesn't have the ability for me to drop my card on it. ? The one on SocialCard didn't either. Karen's last blog post..Tackle It Tuesday
